The Republican Nominating Convention of the Seventh ward reassembled last night at Bardsley's Hall, on Pine street, below Seventeenth. The object of the meeting was to nominate an additional candidate for Com mon Council, the assessment having disclosed that the ward was entitled to two. Mr. Harry O'Neill presided, and Mr. John McClintock acted as secretary. A letter was read from Mr. E. T. Hallowell declining to be a candi date for the nomination, in favor of Mr. Wil liam Device. On motion, Mr. William De vine was thn nominated by acclamation. The engines at the Belmont Water Works, West Philadelphia, will now be run constantly, and in a short time the stand-pipe connected with the old works will be aban doned. In about a month Germantown and Koxborough will be supplied with water irom the works above Manayuuk. The delay in furnishing water is oscasioned by the work at the bridge which is to convey the water over tho Wissahickon creek. The rain on Saturday occasioned a slight rise in the Schuylkill, but not snflieient to pass over the lip which wns added to the dam. Domestic A Hairs. Gold closed yesterday at 113. Postmaster-General Creswoll returns to Washington to-day. Mr. Delano, of the Internal Revenne Bu reau, decides that the tax on illuminating gas is fit ill payable. The business portion of Rockville, Ind., w-rh nearly all destroyed by supposed incen diary tie on last Saturday night. The Mayor of Richmond, Va., has started on a tour to Northern cities to investigate the workings of the public school system. The Reading Board of Trade are urging the speedy completion of the Wilmington and Reading Railroad from Birdsboro to their city. A delegation of colored citizens called upon Governor Walker, of Virginia, yester day, and asked his influence to secure them the rights of jurors. He informed his audi tors that they could gain what they sought inly through the action of the Legislature. gllD WAR. LAST Ml GUT'S DESPATCHES. riOHTINO NEAR PAT.I8 IMPORTANT POSITIONS CAKMED BY THE PRUSSIANS BISMARCK ON l'EACE IRVSSIA IMPLACABLE SHE INSISTS ON TEE POSSESSION OF METZ AND 8TRAS BtT.G. LojiPON, Sept. 10. Tbe Times' German corres pondent, Lupus, writing from tbe headquarters of tfie King at Rheims, on the 8th, says upward of thirty establishments here manufacture woollen c'otbs, employing ten thousand work people. All of these are idle and on the point of starvation. The full amount of misery cannot be realized as yet.. The only remedy seems emigration. The American consul informed me that hundreds of applications had been made for information on the subject of emigration to the United States. I do not apprehend any bloodshed in Paris, nor suppose the Parisians are so unwise as to attempt defence, or the Prussians so barbarous as to proceed to extremities. Nothing can prevent the latter going to Paris, nor will they sutler Me King to enter the city with out an army. Every one seems bent on entering Pans in pomp. All the petty sovereigns of Ger many are making endeavors to be present, and It Is (hoi cult to say what their vanity may lead them to. It is hoped that the good scute of the King and Bismarck will put a veto on these proceedings. The village of Bezeilles, near Sedan, was de stroyed by the Prussians because some wounded fugitives from the German army were massacred in its streets. The Shipping Gazette anticipates that there will be too much cotton and too little corn from the southern States. Cotton prices are low. and there is much activity in Lancashire. A Canadian writes to the Birmingham Gazette that the present liberal government of the colony will drive Canada to annexation to the United (States or independence of Great Britain within six Tears. Loudon, Sept. 19 The correspondent of the New York Times, writing from Paris the 17th, says General Yinoy led 30,000 troops of the line last night to Vincennes to dispute the passage of the Marne. Tho advance of the enemy yesterday was not great, iheir troops are masssed near the Seine, ready to cross at any moment, crossing me seine at Villencure aud St. George's, they will pass in the vicinity of Lonjumeau, to the rear of Versailles. Established there, they will push forward by the woods of Mention to plant batteries on the heights of Clamart, and If the city is bombarded will open tire upon the vanguard from that point. They can greatly damage the city as far as Bou levards d'Kiil'er and Mont Parnasse. The northern army is marching on St. Denis. An announcement was made that a socialist meet ing wouldbe held, at which Victor Hugo, Ledru Rellln, Louis Blanc and Pyatt would be present to protect against the moderation of the government. The meeting was probably suppressed, as It has not taken place. The Reds are struggling for the ascendancy. Since morning the enemy has made slow progress towards Versailles. There was fighting at Juvlsy and Athos. 1 saw a dozen wounded men carried to Val de Grace. Paris, Sept, 10, evening Tbe city is quiet even to dullness. Tbe boulevards are crowded with sol diers. No symptoms of disorder are observable. Prussia explains that she will be fully prepared to treat for peace only when France presents a gov ernment suniciently staple to enforce a treaty. Pahif, Sept. 1'J (Special to the New York Herald A tight took place yesterday, ten miles from Paris, between the advance guard of the Prussian army and a reconnoitring party of Krench. The Utter were driven back, and the Prus , elans established themselves on tbe heights which the French had been holding. The Prussians num. bered att.' f'O. The fight is said to have beeu very bloody. The French, though beaten, inflicted hsavy losses on the Prussians. The contest raged for up ward of two hours. It is reported that 400 uhlans yesterday occupied - Versailles. The postal service has beeu suspended, and a service by messengers is to be organized. Several Prussian scouts were killed yesterday by Gardes Mobiles and Franco-tixeurs in the neigh borhood ot Paris. London, Sept. 19 Speoiai to tne new York rn-. tune. The Tribune's special correspondent tele- frapbs from Berlin, the 19th, that the American station has been advised from Paris that the , blockade of tbe Kibe and Weser had beeu raised, and would not be resumed. Advices from headquarters to the Foreign Office )iave been communicated to tbe American minister that Favre, without waiting for the result of Gran ' v. lie's etep to procure him an interview with Bis icarck, applied to Bismarck directly, and received i'tit jtru.ijOD Jgr .coKfvren.;e iiamed'ately. The mm correspondent writes, the 15th, that Bis marck ii" busy at Rhlins settling various diplomatic matters relative to non-intervention of Germany in Italy, it was agreed that theI tallans may occupy Rome and Nice if the people wish to renounce for mer allegiance. Other European Cabinet have been notified accordingly. The reorganization of Germany was also considered. The details have been postponed for the present, but it is understood that a common constitution will be given all the States, north and south of the Uainn alike, with ample guarantees tor healthy political and econo mical development. Bavaria and Baden distinctly decline territorial enlargement, while agreeing that Alsace and Ixr raine must return to Germany. The recently appointed civil commissioner for Alsace, Von Knhlwettcr, has telegraphed to the boards of trade at, Klberfeld and Bremen for their views of the influence upon German industrial in terests on the admission of Alsace and the Depart ment of the Mosello Into tho German .ollvcrein. Malet, second secretary of the British embassy, who finally succeeded in getting to tho Prussian headquarters, returned on Friday, bringing an an swer from Bismarck to Lord Lyons, ll jlore this visit Lord Lyons had asked Favre whether if Eng land regulated an armistice the French govern ment would welcome hor Intervention. When this became known to Granville, Lyons was politely re buked for his pains. Bent on improving the situation, Lyons then sent Malet on an iniormal mission to B mnarck, notify ing Granvillo after Malet had gnu. Granville forthwith directed Lyons to summon Milotbaok. Lyons obeyed, but bis nifsu-nuor took the wrong road, and 'Malet, after several failures in making his way through a crowd of uhl.ins, reached the king's headquarters. Out of all this succc-slon of cross-purposes grew considerable coolness between Lyons and Granville. Malet's talk with Bismarck was plain and ti the point. He asked for an u'tituitiim. "We roust have Metz and Strasbnrg," said Bismarck. "Dis mantled," asked Malet? "No," replied Dismirck, "stronger than ever." "Then I suppose the French government finds your terms impossible''" "We shall invest and starve Paris, and, if that does not succeed, we shall try sharper moans." "Would you bombard the city?" "Certainly, and burn It if forced; necessity is tristy; but how to escape it?" Bismarck's talk about, Gladstone and Granville, and their timid message-carrying, was the reverse ot respectful, and ho did not. hesitate to lot it; be seen that he cared nothing for the efforts of out siders, and was resolved to settle all questions with France alone. For Ixird Lyons him'1f, Uismarsk professed respect and good will, and advised him to get out of Paris while ho could. He had notiliod Granville that the siego once begun, he would allow no communication between toreigu govern ments and their embassies inside the city. The written answer s?nt by Bismarck to Lord Lyonswss confidential Rnd has not been discl03ed; but Lord Lyons intimates that, ha thinks Bism irck means to have Paris in his bunds befora concluding Eeace, as the mot effective measure of enforcing Is demands. Nor is tho French governmsnt at heart confident of defence. Gen. Trochu told Lyons he would do his best, but he a ided: "Thore will be a massacre and that will leal to an trciiy." The Ministers still utter bravo words. Russia's attitude is still reserve. It has coma out that Gortschakoff was r.sked by England to Join in a fresh guarantee for Belgium. Ha answered, " Yes, if you will include Holland." The Berlin correspondent of tbe Tribune tele graphs the 19th that Favre's Inst circular is in tho main received favorably. The correspondence between Count Bernftorfl' and Granville, and tho account In the Daily News of the large quantities of arrai England is furnish ing France, created great lndigr.ation. The reported intention of the King to return to Berlin is entirely unfounded. The movement in Bavaria and Wurterobsrg in favor of forming an United States of Germany, under the constitution of North Genu iny, being properly modified, is successfully progressing.
